> Microsoft added `vswhere` to the default install of Visual Studio 2017:
> https://github.com/Microsoft/vswhere
> https://github.com/Microsoft/vswhere/wiki/Find-MSBuild
> https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/install/tools-for-managing-visual-studio-instances
> https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/heaths/2017/04/21/vswhere-is-now-installed-with-visual-studio-2017/
> We already use it in `appveyor.yml` to debug output these paths for the CI environment. It would be handy to also use this simple command in `MSBuildTools.js` and similar code instead of what is currently there (which is _really_ confusing and party bad).
